Safety is paramount. You'll oversee shared H&S responsibilities, ensure compliance with legislation and Steel & Tube policies, lead incident investigations, and foster a transparent safety culture across the site.
Continuous Improvement & Change:
Drive cost efficiencies and innovation without compromising customer experience. You'll embed corporate initiatives, lead change in a unionised environment, and optimise processes like inventory and quality management (ISO 9001:2015).
Inventory & Cost Management:
Maintain accurate stock records, reduce variances, and optimise freight and controllable costs. You'll forecast workflows, align resources, and ensure inventory policies are followed across Auckland and regional branches.

At least 7 years of Distribution Centre and warehouse management experience with multi-site, customer-focused operations. You're skilled in distribution principles, inventory management, and leading teams through change. A degree in Operations Management, Supply Chain, Engineering or other relevant field is required. Cultural fit, aligned with our values of United, Open, Trusted, Integrity, and Accountable, is critical.
